Cytidel

Cytidel is a vulnerability intelligence platform designed to help security teams prioritize and manage CVEs (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) more effectively. The platform addresses the challenge of alert fatigue and vulnerability backlog by using dynamic risk ratings and real-time intelligence aggregated from over 1,000 vetted sources, including news, social media, vendor advisories, and exploit repositories.

Core platform capabilities include:

• Vulnerability Threat Intelligence: Monitors thousands of sources to surface trending and emerging vulnerabilities, including CVEs not yet listed in the NVD (National Vulnerability Database), reportedly 17 days faster than NVD for identifying exploited vulnerabilities.
• Risk-Based Vulnerability Management: Applies a dynamic risk algorithm that continuously re-rates vulnerabilities based on real-time threat intelligence, aiming to reduce alert volume by approximately 95% compared to CVSS-based prioritization.
• Third-Party Supplier Monitoring: Tracks vulnerabilities relevant to an organization's third-party suppliers.
• Custom Alerting: Allows users to configure alerts based on keywords, vendors, or other criteria, with email notifications for relevant CVE activity.
• Threat Actor Database: Provides a searchable database of known threat actors, their aliases, and associated CVEs, enabling security teams to contextualize vulnerabilities by adversary tactics.

The platform displays CVSS and EPSS scores, CISA KEV tags, proof-of-concept indicators, and social/news mention counts for each CVE. Cytidel targets threat intelligence and vulnerability management teams, with customers including An Post and Enterprise Ireland. The company is backed by Enterprise Ireland and is headquartered in Ireland.
